City Walls and a Grand Cathedral (Pamplona)


As a gateway to/from the Pyrenees, Pamplona has been a strategic center for at least t,wo thousand years. It's an old, walled city where the streets are narrow canyons that bend and intersect in all different ways.

The cathedral is spectacular. It's a complex of besutiful structures and additions from the late middle ages.





Below is the tower in last photo, from the inside. 27 meters. 13th century and still standing!

Staying in Pamplona again tomorrow.
